Subject: (named|keyword) arguments gem


Hi I've made a gem for supporting keyword arguments in Ruby 1.8.6 and
1.9.1. I think is a good alternative to traditional options hash, usage
is as follows:


require 'arguments'

class Example
    def meth(a = :a, b = :b, c = :c)
        [a,b,c]
    end

    class << self
        def class_method(a = :a, b = :b, c = :c)
            [a,b,c]
        end

        def other_class_method(a = :a, b = :b, c = :c)
            [a,b,c]
        end
        named_args_for :class_method
    end

    named_args_for :meth, :'self.other_class_method'
end

nu = Example.new
nu.meth #=> [:a,:b,:c]
nu.meth(1, :c => Class) #=> [1,:b,Class]
nu.meth(:b => nil, :a => 'something') #=> ['something', nil, :c]

Example.class_method(:b => nil, :a => 'something') #=> ['something',
nil, :c]
Example.other_class_method(:b => nil, :a => 'something') #=>
['something', nil, :c]
